5 homes dedicated to helping families in need of emergency or transitional housing were officially opened this (Mon) morning in Regina.

Silver Sage Holdings purchased and renovated the homes which are located in residential neighbourhoods providing families close access to shopping, schools and other services.

Regina MLA Warren Steinley says this opportunity will allow families to have a safe place to call home.

Just under 800 thousand dollars was contributed under the Canada-Saskatchewan Investment in Affordable Housing Agreement.
